A soft-waisted educated youth has sex with a loyal dog and a rough guy in the 1960s

Chapter 17 Vegetable Field, Work

Now the land is barren.

Lu Miao said: "In the past, it was because there were few people that we couldn't take care of it. Now that there are more people, we clear out the land and eat the vegetables we grow together. Anyone who has time can just keep an eye on it."

Lu Miao made a decision: "Tell me where the land is? I will arrange this!"

Although vegetables are not a serious food ration, they are still edible.

There are so many people in the educated youth spots, and there are always some who are rich and poor.

The rich refuse to work, but those who are hungry are always willing to take care of them.

Gu Ying felt that she took it for granted, but she still told the truth:

"It's right in front of the door near the corner of the pond. You can usually see some sunshine there. Although the land is deserted, there was a loofah stand set up there before. You can see it when you go over."

Lu Miao nodded and pulled Ren Bingxin over to watch.

The vegetable patch had not been taken care of for a long time, and the path leading past was covered with calf-high weeds. Lu Miao did not dare to walk, so she asked Ren Bingxin to use a stick to clear a path in front of her. She kicked deep and shallow. The ground followed behind.

The vegetable field is close to the corner of the pond, and the terrain follows the arc of the pond's periphery, showing a crescent shape.

It is about the size of an inch of land. Because it has not been taken care of for a long time, the vegetables that were planted earlier have become too long. They look long and thin and still fresh and tender. When you pinch them, you can tell that the leaves and stems have become lignified.

On the other hand, the loofah that Gu Ying said is close to a water source and has sunshine, which is more suitable for the growing environment. Therefore, even if it survives in a pile of weeds, the loofah will grow well.

The melon vines climbed up the tree from the perfunctory bamboo pole frame. At a glance, there were several old loofahs hanging four or five meters high, as well as some small yellow flowers and small hook-like loofahs.

"The old ones can't be eaten anymore. The smaller ones can be eaten if they are longer, but it's hard to get them down because they're so tall." Ren Bingxin looked around and asked, "Miaomiao, what do you think?"

Lu Miao took a look at the general situation and walked back, "I have no idea at the moment. Let's wait and see for two days before talking."

"Oh!"

Ren Bingxin responded and followed her back.

Gu Ying and Yang Xiaojing are old educated youths in the team. They know where the team is short of manpower and where there is work every day, so they usually go directly to the fields.

Now that the weather is getting hotter, in order to avoid suffering a little bit, they both get up early and go out every day.

Lu Miao always remembered that Fu Jingyou said he wanted to go out early. The next day, she heard Gu Ying's bed board shaking and she immediately got up.

Gu Ying was surprised, "I usually call you several times when I leave but you don't want to get up. Why is it so early today?"

Lu Miao closed her eyes and fetched a comb from Ren Bingxin's bedside. She sat on the edge of the bed and began to comb her hair. Over the past few days, she could easily tie her hair into braids.

"We're going far away today, and aunt said it's best to go out early."

Gu Ying nodded knowingly. There were indeed several places in the production team that were far away. It would be good to go out early. "If it's too far, you probably won't come back for lunch, right? Don't forget to bring dry food."

"it is good."

Without preservation measures, Lu Miao couldn't bear to eat food that had been left overnight.

The educated youth had no fire in the morning, so she couldn't steam the rations, so she decided to just get two raw sweet potatoes.

She said she was taking two, but when she actually took two, she thought of something and put one back.He stood up, opened the lock on the box, and took the half-pack of peach cakes he had eaten before.

He didn't bring much luggage. Apart from bedding and some basic daily necessities, there were no containers that could be used to store things. Lu Miao originally planned to borrow it from Ren Bingxin and the others, but it was obvious that they were sleeping soundly, so she didn't bother them.

Almost done, Lu Miao put on a straw hat and held a hoe in one hand. The other hand was even busier, with a peach cake hanging on her little finger and a palm-sized sweet potato in her hand.When meeting Fu Jingyou at the northeast corner of the pond, Fu Jingyou asked: "Is this food rations?"

Lu Miao nodded, thinking that Fu Jingyou wanted to ask her why she had nothing to pack. She said, "I only have a net bag and a box. The box contains clothes. The net bag is used to hold rations. There is nothing else."

Fu Jingyou actually wanted to say that it was too little for Lu Miao to bring such a small amount of rations for lunch.

After thinking about it, he did not speak, but raised his chin to signal Lu Miao to follow him.

Lu Miao trotted after him. His hat did not have a chin strap. Facing the morning breeze, the hat was slightly lifted by the wind and threatened to be blown off.

She let go of the hoe and hurriedly reached out to hold the hat. When she came back to grab the hoe, the sweet potato in her other hand fell to the ground again and rolled several times along the bank of the pond, narrowly avoiding rolling into the pond.

Fu Jingyou saw her fussing around, which was more exciting than singing a big opera, so she endured it, but finally couldn't help but stretched out her hand and took the hoe from her hand.

Taking one less thing made him feel lighter. Lu Miao's eyes were bright and she bared her little white teeth and said thanks: "Thank you!"

The two continued to walk forward and noticed that Fu Jingyou didn't take any farm tools. Lu Miao asked curiously: "Don't you take a hoe? Or rations?"

Fu Jingyou replied calmly: "Go home and get it later."

Lu Miao heard the clues and raised his head to look forward.

This area already belongs to the outskirts of the village. Looking ahead, at the end of the path, on one side are houses shrouded in shadows of trees and bamboo forests, and on the other side is a threshing floor filled with old straw.

Home……

Is that house surrounded by the shadows of bamboo trees Fu Jingyou’s home?
Lu Miao thought so and asked the same question.

Fu Jingyou said "hmm" in a low mood, not wanting to say more on this topic.

The Fu family's ancestors were once wealthy, this is a stain...

So the entire Fu family was almost dead, and only he was left alive. As for this blue brick house, it was the only remaining family property.

Most of the houses in the village are adobe houses. Even captain He Hongjin's house is built with red bricks in the front and adobe blocks in the back.

Although the Fu family's brick house has not been repaired for several years, it still looks very conspicuous on the outside.

For this reason, even if no one mentioned it publicly, privately, Fu Jingyou and the members of Dahe Village knew that they were different.

The commune members were glorious poor and lower-middle peasants, but Fu Jingyou was not.

Fu Jingyou was even prepared for how Lu Miao would hate and alienate him after realizing that he had a disgraceful background.

Fu Jingyou was in a low mood, but instead of waiting for Lu Miao to question him, he was asked a nonsensical question:

"Are your dates delicious?"

Fu Jingyou shook his head, turned sideways and asked in disbelief: "What?"

"What? You don't listen carefully when I talk to you?"

Lu Miao frowned and hummed, then nuzzled in the direction of the Fu family in displeasure, "Let me ask you if the dates planted in front of your house are sweet!"

There is no yard in front of Fu's house, but there is a flat area with three very tall jujube trees.

This season is not yet the time when the dates are ripe, but seeing the fruits on the trees, Lu Miao is already looking forward to it.
